[QUOTE="Aaron Yarbough, post: 637132, member: 64114"] Tiger, a quick response/explanation to your last edit. The use of Nitrogen does not have anythng to do with the temperature at which the rubber breaks down. It's solely about the pressure of the tires. In racing applications it's extremely important to maintain consistant tire pressure. Varying tires pressure alters how the car handles and responds to the track. Pit crews spend many hours adjusting the cars suspension to handle appropriately to each track. To do this, it's critical to maintian consistant tire pressures or the car would handle differently with different track temperatures. [/QUOTE]
